Birmingham City striker Nikola Zigic has laughed off speculation linking him with a January exit.

The giant Serbia striker joined the Blues from Valencia in a £6million deal two months ago.

Zigic has started just two Premier League games after been used mainly off the bench by manager Alex McLeish.

However, he has dismissed reports claiming he could be on his way to Sporting Lisbon when the transfer window reopens in January.

"I was aware of the speculation about Sporting Lisbon and I found it quite amusing," said Zigic.

"But really I am a Birmingham player. I enjoy being here. I am certainly going to try my best for the club and something I want to do is progress my career here.

"You always get some speculation from other clubs and what have you.

"But I am a Birmingham player, I signed a contract in the summer, I enjoy playing with the boys, we are a good squad and I'm more than happy being here."Subscribe to Football FanCast News Headlines by Email
